Key takeaways
If you are planning a visit to a clinic in Mabuk-dong (마북동) or elsewhere in Giheung-gu, Yongin, the first thing to settle is language support: it varies from clinic to clinic, and the data behind this comparison does not record English-speaking staff or an international patient desk at any of the five. Call the clinic or check its booking page before you go, and bring your passport or ARC, a list of any medications you take, and previous X-rays or treatment records if you have them.
If you are looking into orthodontic clinics in Mabuk-dong, this comparison starts with 연세온아치과병원 용인점 (Yonsei On Dental Hospital, Yongin Branch). It has a Kakao Map rating of 4.7, 2,714 Naver visitor reviews and 1,128 Kakao Map reviews; the reviews cover waiting after booking, staff manner, and general treatment experiences. The data provided, however, does not show whether the hospital offers orthodontic treatment or how many dental specialists it has. You therefore need to ask directly about orthodontic availability, the treating clinician, and the treatment plan. The five clinics below are a comparison of reviews and published clinic information, not a ranking that guarantees treatment outcomes or suitability.
Clinics whose names indicate orthodontic care include 연세미소라인치과교정치과의원 (Yonsei Misoline Dental & Orthodontic Clinic), 서울삼성치과교정과치과의원 (Seoul Samsung Dental & Orthodontic Clinic), and 바른스마일치과교정과치과의원 (Bareun Smile Dental & Orthodontic Clinic). Reviews for 서울닥터유치과의원 용인본점 (Seoul Dr. Yoo Dental Clinic, Yongin Main Branch) mention clear-aligner treatment. Confirm the actual scope of care and current consultation availability before you visit.
How we compared
We collected and compared 3,759 Naver Place visitor reviews, 2,597 Kakao Map reviews, and registration data from the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service (HIRA). The total review count in each clinic table sums the Naver, Kakao Map and Google reviews listed in the clinic data; blog reviews are excluded from the visitor review totals and appear as a separate figure. The five selected clinics average 4.6 on Kakao Map. Naver and Google ratings were either absent from the data provided or available only as review counts rather than ratings, so no values were filled in. The number of dental specialists was listed as “no information” for all five clinics in the HIRA data.
연세온아치과병원 용인점 (Yonsei On Dental Hospital, Yongin Branch)
This is the first clinic in the list. Its Kakao Map rating is 4.7, with 2,714 Naver visitor reviews, 1,128 Kakao Map reviews and 10 Google reviews, for a three-platform total of 3,852. Blog reviews number 3,474. Reviews describe being seen without waiting after booking, staff manner, and both satisfaction and dissatisfaction with the treatment process. These are individual experiences and do not indicate orthodontic outcomes. The number of dental specialists under HIRA criteria is not available in the data provided.
“They took care of the parts that had been bothering me before, too, with great attention.” (Naver review, October 25, 2026)
“I booked ahead, so there was no wait, which was great, and the professor and the nurses were all so kind.” (Naver review, October 24, 2026)
The address is 경기 용인시 기흥구 용구대로 2354 206호 (2354 Yonggu-daero, Suite 206, Giheung-gu, Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do), 538 m from Exit 2 of Guseong Station on the Suin–Bundang Line and GTX-A. The phone number is 0507-1472-2298. Hours are listed as Monday–Friday 09:30–20:00 and Saturday–Sunday 09:30–15:00. Evening hours run until 20:00 Monday to Friday; the lunch break is not given in the data, so you will need to ask. Booking and parking are listed as amenities, but confirm the parking conditions and how to book before you visit. A website and blog are provided.
The data does not state whether orthodontic treatment is offered, which appliance types are used, or what orthodontic treatment costs. If you are consulting about braces, start by asking whether the clinic does orthodontic work and who explains the diagnosis and treatment plan. A large number of general-treatment reviews alone cannot tell you whether a clinic is right for orthodontics.
연세미소라인치과교정치과의원 (Yonsei Misoline Dental & Orthodontic Clinic)
The Kakao Map rating is 4, with 188 Naver reviews, 354 Kakao Map reviews and 1 Google review, for a total of 543. Blog reviews number 1,412. The number of dental specialists under HIRA criteria is listed as “no information” in the data provided, so specialist qualifications cannot be confirmed from review text alone. Reviews describe personal experiences with adult orthodontic consultations, explanations during treatment, and non-extraction orthodontics. These are individual visitors' experiences; non-extraction treatment or a particular treatment duration cannot be applied to every patient.
“Every visit, the director checks carefully how my teeth are moving and explains things kindly, which is really reassuring.” (Naver review, July 15, 2026)
“I was worried adult orthodontics would be uncomfortable with a full-time job, but they treat me without pain each visit, so I've been going comfortably.” (Naver review, July 8, 2026)
The address is 경기 용인시 기흥구 죽전로 29 포레스트프라자 4층 401·402호 (Forest Plaza 4F, Rooms 401–402, 29 Jukjeon-ro, Giheung-gu, Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do), and the phone number is 0507-1423-2034. It is 793 m from Exit 2 of Jukjeon Station on the Suin–Bundang Line. Hours are Monday, Wednesday and Friday 10:00–18:30, Tuesday and Thursday 14:00–21:00, and Saturday 10:00–16:00, with Tuesday and Thursday running until 21:00. The lunch break is not given in the data. Booking and parking are listed as amenities, but you should confirm the parking location and cost and the booking process.
The clinic's name and the orthodontic experiences in its reviews are useful reference points, but at the consultation ask directly about the diagnosis and the options, including whether extraction is needed. A “non-extraction” comment in a review does not mean non-extraction treatment will be possible for you. It is practical to ask whether costs by appliance type, the expected duration, the interval between visits and retainer costs are all included in the quote.
서울닥터유치과의원 용인본점 (Seoul Dr. Yoo Dental Clinic, Yongin Main Branch)
The Kakao Map rating is 5, with 538 Naver reviews, 813 Kakao Map reviews and 157 Google reviews, for a total of 1,508. Blog reviews number 2,697. Reviews include positive experiences with thorough treatment and explanations, alongside complaints about scaling (teeth cleaning). Do not settle the question of quality from ratings or a handful of reviews alone; compare what each clinic says at consultation. The number of dental specialists under HIRA criteria is not confirmed in the data provided.
“The director and the office manager explain things so well that, thanks to them, I get my checkups comfortably.” (Naver review, October 16, 2026)
“I'm having clear-aligner orthodontics. I'd heard orthodontics hurts, so I was worried, but it doesn't hurt much and progress is much faster than I expected.” (Naver review, October 12, 2026)
The address field in the provided data lists only the clinic name, so the address cannot be confirmed. It is 855 m from Exit 2 of Jukjeon Station on the Suin–Bundang Line, and the phone number is 0507-1431-2081. Hours are listed as Monday, Wednesday and Friday 09:30–18:30, Tuesday and Thursday 09:30–20:30, and Saturday 09:30–14:00, so Tuesday and Thursday run until 20:30. The lunch break is not in the data, so please ask. Booking, parking, Wi-Fi and a waiting area are listed as amenities; it is worth confirming the exact address and parking arrangements when you book.
Reviews mention clear-aligner experience, but the data alone cannot tell you whether that appliance is currently offered or whether it suits you. At consultation, ask about appliance types, wear time and care, the expected treatment period, extra costs, and the retainer plan. The link provided as the website is a blog address, and Instagram information is provided as well.
서울삼성치과교정과치과의원 (Seoul Samsung Dental & Orthodontic Clinic)
With 166 Naver reviews, 0 Kakao Map reviews and 1 Google review, the confirmed review total is 167. No rating is given in the data provided. Blog reviews number 424. Reviews describe detailed explanations during orthodontic exams and consultations, and one parent describes having a child assessed for whether orthodontic treatment was needed. These are the writers' own experiences and do not guarantee outcomes. The number of dental specialists under HIRA criteria is not confirmed in the data provided, so ask the clinic directly about clinician qualifications and the scope of care they handle.
“The doctor explained everything I was curious about kindly and in detail. And rather than recommending treatment right away, he said we could watch how things went and decide later whether to do orthodontics, which really made me trust him.” (Naver review, April 28, 2026)
“It was my first orthodontic consultation, and they explained everything in a way that was very easy to understand, and everyone was quick and kind even though they were busy.” (Naver review, December 20, 2025)
The address field lists only the clinic name, so no detailed address is provided. It is 44 m from Exit 2 of Suji-gu Office Station on the Shinbundang Line, and the phone number is 031-896-2885. Hours are listed as Monday 10:30–19:00, Tuesday 10:00–20:00, Wednesday and Friday 10:00–19:00, and Saturday 09:00–14:30. Tuesday runs until 20:00; whether the clinic is open on Thursday and Sunday is not in the data provided. The lunch break is also not listed. Booking, parking, Wi-Fi and a waiting area are listed as amenities, but confirm the detailed address and parking information in advance.
Reviews include a consultation where the plan was to watch progress after the exam, but the same diagnosis does not apply to every patient. Ask when orthodontic treatment is needed, what the observation plan would be if treatment is delayed, what the exam costs, and what the treatment options are. A website and blog address are provided.
바른스마일치과교정과치과의원 (Bareun Smile Dental & Orthodontic Clinic)
The Kakao Map rating is given as 4.8 and the Google rating as 5. With 153 Naver reviews, 302 Kakao Map reviews and 0 Google reviews, the review total is 455, and blog reviews number 503. Because there are 0 Google reviews, the number of ratings behind the Google score of 5 cannot be confirmed from the data provided. Reviews cover retainer repairs, scaling and consultations. The number of dental specialists under HIRA criteria was not provided.
“My retainer came off so I dropped in without an appointment, and I'm so grateful for the kind welcome and treatment.” (Naver review, May 6, 2026)
“The doctor and the nurses were all kind and treated me without any unnecessary procedures, so I really wanted to leave a review for a place like this.” (Naver review, February 4, 2026)
The address is 경기 용인시 기흥구 구갈로 70 205호 (70 Gugal-ro, Suite 205, Giheung-gu, Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do), 636 m from Exit 3 of Singal Station on the Suin–Bundang Line. The phone number is 031-326-0123. Hours are listed as Tuesday, Thursday and Friday 10:00–19:00, Wednesday 14:00–20:30, and Saturday 10:00–15:00, with Wednesday running until 20:30. Whether the clinic is open on Monday and Sunday, and the lunch break, are not in the data provided. No amenity information was provided either, so call to confirm how to book and whether parking is available.
The clinic is registered under an orthodontic practice name, but the data does not say which appliances are currently available or what treatment costs. Retainer-related reviews may be useful if you want to ask about aftercare following orthodontics. If you had braces elsewhere, ask first whether they can take on your case, what appliance type you have, and what a repair would cost. Website, blog and Instagram addresses are provided.

Checklist for choosing an orthodontic clinic
- Know who is treating you — Confirm who handles the consultation and the regular visits, and what their orthodontic qualifications and scope of practice are.
- Understand the diagnosis — Ask for the exam results and the reason treatment is needed in plain language, and ask questions about anything unclear.
- Compare treatment options — Check whether the clinic explains the available choices, including extraction versus non-extraction and the types of appliance.
- Ask about the timeline — Ask about the expected treatment period, how often you will need to come in, and what conditions could change the plan.
- Get the total cost — Ask item by item whether exams, adjustments and retainers are charged separately from the appliance fee.
- Plan for retention — Confirm the retainer type, how to wear it, and the cost of checkups and replacements after treatment ends.
- Ask whether your clinician can change — Ask whether the treating clinician may change mid-treatment and how any change would be explained to you.
- Check booking and hours — Make sure evening and Saturday hours, closed days, and the way to change an appointment fit your schedule.
- Check access and parking — Confirm the actual walking route from the station and whether and how you can park before you book.
Warning signs
- Being rushed into treatment without a full explanation — Ask for time to understand the exam results and options, and get a second opinion if you need one.
- No clear statement of total and extra costs — Ask for appliance, exam and retainer costs item by item.
- Firm promises about duration or results — Plans vary from person to person, so ask what conditions the estimate assumes.
- Vague plans for checkups and aftercare — Confirm the visit interval and how to care for your retainer before you start.
Frequently asked questions
Where should I start when choosing an orthodontic clinic in Mabuk-dong?
This comparison lists Yonsei On Dental Hospital, Yongin Branch first, but the information provided does not confirm whether it offers orthodontic treatment. Ask first whether orthodontic consultations are available, then compare diagnosis, cost and hours with clinics whose information covers orthodontic care, such as Yonsei Misoline Dental & Orthodontic Clinic.
Do more reviews mean better orthodontic treatment?
Not necessarily. Reviews are individual experiences, and review counts and ratings alone cannot tell you about a clinician's diagnosis or treatment outcomes. Compare what each clinic says at consultation and the treatment plan itself.
How much should I expect to pay for orthodontic treatment?
The 2026 reference prices provided are 3.5–6 million won for metal braces, 5–8 million won for ceramic, 8–15 million won for lingual, and 4–9 million won for clear aligners. Actual costs vary by clinic and treatment plan, and retainers are often billed separately. Ask for the total and what it includes at consultation.
How long does orthodontic treatment usually take?
The reference information provided gives a typical range of 18–30 months. It varies with each person's treatment plan, so confirm your expected timeline and visit interval at consultation.
Can I book an orthodontic consultation in Mabuk-dong without speaking Korean?
The data collected for these five clinics does not record language support, so it cannot confirm that any of them has English-speaking dentists or staff — support varies by clinic and has to be checked. Call the clinic (for example, 0507-1472-2298 for Yonsei On Dental Hospital, Yongin Branch) or use its booking channel to ask whether an English-speaking consultation is possible on the date you want, and bring a Korean-speaking friend or a translation app if you need help with the call.
If reviews mention non-extraction or clear-aligner cases, does that mean I can have the same?
No. A review is one visitor's experience. What is possible for you has to be confirmed by a clinician after an exam and diagnosis; you cannot copy someone else's extraction decision or appliance choice.
Final thoughts
When choosing an orthodontic clinic in Mabuk-dong, look beyond reviews and ratings: check whether orthodontic consultations are available, who will be treating you, the treatment plan, the total cost, retainers and how convenient the visits are. If you are coming from abroad, ask specifically about English-speaking support before booking, since it varies by clinic. This article summarizes the reviews, registration data and reference prices provided and does not guarantee any clinic's results or that a particular treatment suits you. Decisions about diagnosis and treatment should be made in direct consultation with a dental professional.
